This recipe was great! My little brother absolutely HATES zucchini and he thought that this was the best "apple" pie he'd ever had. This was a big hit with the rest of the family. I found that slicing the zucchini VERY thin helps to cook it completely and also to mask it as apples. I used a salad shooter, but you can also use the straight part on a grater.

Excellent recipe!! Tastes just like apple pie - I substituted graham crackers for the bottom crust & oatmeal topping for the top crust.

I had high hopes for this one but I couldn't eat it without cringing. Zucchini do not bake the way apples do- you just wind up with a pie with stringy vegetables inside. I don't think the zucchini flavor is masked sufficiently by the spices. This one didn't fool me.

Found this recipe when trying to find a use for all the zucchini growing in my garden. My daughters favorite pie is apple pie but she developed an allergy to apples a few years ago...when I saw this I knew we had to try it. Sam made this recipe herself (age 13) it turned out great!! She said if she didn't make it herself she would swear it had apples in it. We are going to see if we can trick dad tonight!!! We will definitly be making this again and again Thanks

This pie is superb. Bought an excess of 6-inch zucchini. Didn't peel them just sliced them and made the recipe just as stated. It was so good I will buy zucchini in the winter just to make the pie. Probably will add a few raisins as we really like them. SUPER recipe. Thanks a lot for sharing

I made this recipe twice. Both times I followed the recipe precisely. The first time it was excellent,and truly tasted like apple pie. The second time I used more mature ( read overgrown) zucchini, and it was disgusting, we didn't even finish the pie. It was stringy, and had a very overpowering "squashy" taste. ( I know, I know, it is squash afterall...) If you're going to attempt this recipe, use very fresh, young ( not baby, but definately not anything resembling a caveman's club)zucchini. If you do, it will be a GREAT Pie!

YUMMMM! I was the one to bake it, but I still thought that someone must have pulled a pie-switch on me because this tasted just like apple pie. Really a fun recipe to make for someone and then afterwards say, "oh by the way, that was zucchini." They will not believe you. In fact, it was better than apple pie because the "apples" didn't get so mushy as normal apples do.

Amazing... best disguise for zucchini yet. When I served it at dinner my husband asked, "what kind of apples are these?" I said. "The long, skinny, green kind from the garden!" Actually, I did slice in two apples that had to be used up, and extra flour to help with the runniness of the zucchini.

It was good, but I think I should have cooked the zucchini slices longer. Wasn't sure what "tender-crisp" meant. Makes me realize the flavor of apple pie must be in the spices more than the apples.

cookobird excellent.... used splenda for 3/4 instead of sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. used more than 2 zucchini, used deep dish pie crust and could have put in more. we found the splenda better tasting than brown sugar. hubby says it's on our list. bake them and freeze them. had a lot of zucchini.

This is a great recipe. Using Pillsbury pie crust makes it even easier and faster. And it really tastes like apple pie.

My husband loved it! Then i told him what it was and he refused to eat anymore....next time i won't tell. Very tricky- probably better with whipped cream. a nice alternative to zucchini bread.

I was very excited about finding another zucchini recipe, but it did not live up to my hopes. I didn't really know what to do with the taste. I found that it didn't taste like apple, nor was zucchini something that I enjoyed sweet. I felt that the zucchini was a little bit too crunchy still. Neither my husband nor I enjoyed it. Perhaps it may be due to the fact that we had already eaten too much zucchini!

It doesn't quite taste like apples, but the texture is good and it tastes great.
